USGS researchers, funded in part by the USGS National Innovation Center, partnered with the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) to use a robotic sampler to collect water from a river one to two times per day for sampling for eDNA (DNA fragments that are shed by an organism into the environment).
